Ollin Tlahtoalli: Centro de Lenguas y Cultura Mexicana A.C.

Our Mission

     Our goal is to promote the recognition  and appreciation of diverse cultures   
 through experiential living and learning. Using language as the bridge that
 connects us, our programs seek to enhance cross-cultural respect and appreciation
 that enriches communities by providing diverse opportunities for language-based
 teaching and learning. Through this objective, we seek to not only broaden the
 knowledge of visitors to the Oaxaca area regarding our indigenous communities,
 but also to reinforce respect for and preservation of indigenous languages and
 customs.

     The common theme that connects our various programs is the pairing of
 hands-on projects within rural communities with practical Spanish language
 strengthening in the city of Oaxaca.  All elements of the program are aimed at
 enhancing the knowledge of Mexican and Oaxacan history and culture, as well as
 providing learning experiences for all contributors, including foreign visitors, locals,
 and indigenous groups.
